Seven Crowns
Chapter 89 Formal Negotiations
Before leaving the Olympic Sports Center, a little episode happened.
Lu Wenbin was surrounded by dozens of spectators who had been watching the excitement and did not leave. They must sign their names.
Seeing that Lu Wenbin had made an appointment with Claire for a negotiation time and was about to sign with the Bundesliga club and become a big star, some fans asked Lu Wenbin to sign in advance as a souvenir.
After Lu Wenbin becomes famous, I am afraid it will be a rare chance to get an autograph.
The first time someone asked for the signature, there were so many people, which greatly satisfied Lu Wenbin's vanity.
Lu Wenbin patiently signed one by one, and it was only after 23:00 that he left the Olympic Sports Center at the urging of Zhang Minghai and returned to the hotel to rest.
The next day, on the morning of Monday, August 27, after breakfast, Lu Wenbin and his parents came to the five-star hotel where Dietmar Hope stayed and was invited into Hope's presidential suite.
Under Fu Qingqing's translation, after getting to know each other, Hope first congratulated Lu Wenbin for his excellent performance in this competition.
Then, Hope made an invitation to Lu Wenbin as the chairman of the Hoffenheim Club of the German Football League Two, inviting Lu Wenbin to join the Hoffenheim Club and play football in Germany.
However, it has been half a month since the Bundesliga League began, and Lu Wenbin was not included in Hoffenheim's lineup design for the new season.
Therefore, after Lu Wenbin went to Germany, he had to undergo a medical examination first, and then stayed in the youth team for a period of time.
Although Lu Wenbin was a player personally introduced by Hope, Hope is not a hands-on boss who often interferes with the operation of the team at the competitive level.
Whether Lu Wenbin can be promoted to the first team and represent Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga depends on the meaning of the head coach Ralph Rangnick.
This point, Lu Wenbin discussed with his parents on the way before he came here, and it was also expected by them.
As a young man from football desert China who has never experienced professional team training or competition, it is still relatively difficult for Lu Wenbin to play in the first team of the Bundesliga club as soon as he goes to Europe.
Anyway, the youth team also has competitions. As long as there is a system, Lu Wenbin's ability will continue to improve, and it will always impress the first team coach. He is not worried that he will not be able to play in the first team game by staying in the youth team.
Therefore, Lu Wenbin nodded to show his understanding and acceptable.
Regarding salary, Hope proposed a contract with an annual salary of 100,000 euros before tax.
According to the renminbi to euro exchange rate in 2007, 100,000 euros is equivalent to a little more than 1 million yuan.
Even though the consumption in Germany is higher and the personal income tax is deducted as high as 45%, the annual income of RMB 500,000 to 600,000 a year still shocked Lu Wenbin and his parents.
You know, Lu Chongxin and Sun Jiahui's current salary is only three or four thousand yuan, and five or sixty thousand is equivalent to their salary for more than ten years without food or drink.
Professional players really make money, no wonder many Brazilians regard playing football as a career that can change their destiny.
This condition exceeded the expectations of Lu Wenbin's family.
Lu Wenbin and his parents discussed on the road, as long as the salary is not too low, don't care too much.
The most important thing at the moment is that Lu Wenbin can go to Germany and start his career from the Bundesliga.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Hope offered an annual salary of 100,000 euros before Lu Wenbin put forward conditions.
Although this treatment is much worse than the salary of ordinary Bundesliga players, it is definitely a high treatment for a young man, and Lu Wenbin will naturally have no objection.
Then, there are first-team appearance fees, goal scorers, assist awards, team promotion awards, etc., and the conditions are not low.
Only then did Lu Wenbin remember that Hope was the richest man in Forbes. Although he is not as good as Chelsea boss Abramovich, he is by no means a stingy person.
As long as Hope values people, spending more money is not a problem for him at all.
After talking about the salary, then there is the issue of the contract period.
Hope proposed to sign for eight years, but Lu Wenbin naturally disagreed.
In the eight-year contract period, Hope is not short of money. He will perform well by then. If he sees that no matter how much transfer fee his club charges, he will not let anyone go, and Lu Wenbin will be trapped in Hoffenheim.
In case Hoffenheim could not be upgraded, or even downgraded, Lu Wenbin would be depressed.
Overall, Lu Wenbin still doesn't have much confidence in this little-known country club, even though its owner is a Forbes billionaire.
Therefore, on this matter, Lu Wenbin has to bargain a bit, and he cannot hold back because he is afraid that he will not be able to sign a contract or go to Europe.
Therefore, Lu Wenbin put forward a request for a four-year contract.
Hope naturally disagrees. No club will sign a 17-year-old to a four-year contract.
Four years later, Lu Wenbin was only 21 years old. If Lu Wenbin really made a name for himself and left for free after four years, didn't Hoffenheim make a big mistake?
Therefore, Hope still insisted on the conditions of signing an eight-year contract.
After thinking about it, Lu Wenbin proposed to reduce his salary, but the contract period was only six years.
Hope naturally doesn't care about Lu Wenbin's salary, but he also considers that if Lu Wenbin fails to make a name for himself, wouldn't Hoffenheim have to keep Lu Wenbin for eight years in vain?
Can a Chinese high school amateur player who has not undergone professional training really make a name for himself in the Bundesliga?
Hope felt a little shaken in his heart.
So, after careful consideration for a while, Hope agreed to Lu Wenbin's request to sign for only six years. As for the salary, there is no need to drop it.
A salary of 100,000 euros was a big figure in China in 2007, but in Germany, especially in professional football, it was nothing.
Although German clubs have always pursued a financial health policy, they are, after all, one of the most developed countries in Europe. Almost all ordinary players in the Bundesliga have an annual salary of more than 300,000 euros.
Lu Wenbin's annual salary of 100,000, which is the starting salary of an ordinary youth team player when he signs a professional contract for the first time, Hope neither looked down on Lu Wenbin nor lowered his salary because of Lu Wenbin's nationality.
In addition to salary, bonuses and contract years, Lu Wenbin's parents put forward additional requirements.
Because Lu Wenbin does not know foreign languages, they hope that Hoffenheim Club will pay for Lu Wenbin to hire a German translator to avoid some misunderstandings caused by language barriers in life and training.
After thinking about it, Hope agreed. After asking Fu Qingqing's opinion on the spot and obtaining approval, he decided to hire Fu Qingqing as Lu Wenbin's translator at the expense of Hoffenheim Club to help Lu Wenbin adapt to life and training in Germany. The time is half a year. .
Hope hopes that Lu Wenbin can use German proficiently to communicate with coaches and teammates in half a year.
